Hi! My Figma started lagging after update. It`s like working in 15fps.


My pc: rx 580 8g, r5 1600, 24gb RAM … Figma is on SSD … I tried to reinstall Figma but it didn`t help


When I`m working in Figma (only Figma):

videocard - 0% (!) \ \ \

ram - 76% -----> percent of loading

processor - 37% (why only processor??) / / / /


What can I do? (in web-app a have the similar problem)

Hi @Daniel_Rozhnov1, Thanks for reaching out about this issue. I really appreciate your efforts in troubleshooting it so far.


Here are things you can start with if you haven’t already checked them:


Browser Check Could you check if this issue appears in any other browsers?

Network Connection Does the issue persist if you switch to a different network, such as a mobile hotspot or another Wi-Fi?

File Specificity Is this just occurring for some files, for all existing files or for new files created in Drafts?

Device and Driver Updates Please ensure that your device is updated to the latest operating system version and that your graphics drivers are also up to date.

Clear Cache Try clearing your app and browser cache to see any difference? - Clear the Figma desktop app cache


Additionally, please note that Figma is a browser-based app, which means it’s subjected to a 2GB available memory limit that applies to each browser tab, including those in our Desktop App. When loading or editing Figma files nears or exceeds this memory limit, it might cause performance issues like long loading times. Please check details here: Reduce memory usage in files


Some of the information overlaps with the above, please refer to this as well: Troubleshooting checklist


If you’re still experiencing issues after checking the above, I recommend reaching out to our support team for further investigation here: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
